• Scrapy Vs. Crawlee

  Scrapy is an open-source Python-based web scraping framework that extracts data from websites. With Scrapy, you create spiders, which are autonomous scripts to download and process web content. The limitation of Scrapy is that it does not work very well with JavaScript rendered websites, as it was designed for static HTML pages. We will do a comparison later in the article about this. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Creating an advanced search engine with PostgreSQL

  If you're looking for a turn-key solution, I'd have to dig a little. I generally write a scraper in python that dumps into a database or flat file (depending on number of records I'm hunting).

  Pretty sure that's exactly what Clearbit does. Although now their site has some AI hype on it and I can't tell if that's just the obligatory AI marketing, or if they actually changed their product. https://clearbit.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 14 days ago

• How Profile Enrichment can boost your product

  For profile enrichment with Authgear, you create a Hook that could call an external API such as FullContact and Clearbit to grab some data and then put any extra information into the User Profile that every user gets when they sign up through Authgear.

• Legality and ethics question about a feature I saw on a website

  I inspected the site a bit and it looks like they're using https://clearbit.com/ to get the company data. Personally I don't feel there is any ethical issue however everyone has their own opinions. It definitely feels a bit creepy. Source: about 2 years ago

• An Post and Ordnance Survey Ireland are selling intimate personal data about all of us - Irish Council for Civil Liberties

  No, I'm just a realist about it.
